Quote from pairsarbtooo:
I don't think any already successful trader cares about your strategy, or mine, etc. Furthermore, another important element of profitable trading is the ability to follow the system. Who do you think is more likely to follow a trading system when it's experiencing it's maximum heat: the developer/trader or the copier/thief/trader? (Heat is an element of a drawdown. Trading systems often experience periods of maximum gain after maximum heat.)
I'm completely agree with you but everything depends on business you're in. If you provide traders with technical solutions, IP protection is extremely important. When you are trader trading your own strategy, I also think it doesn't really matters.
